Primordial Era: The Way of the Three Lights and Stars

Chapter 54 054 Hongmeng Star Dao Scripture

"With the reconstruction of the Heavenly Court, I will be taking up a post there. The reason I have invited you all here is to ask if you are willing to come with me to take up a post in the Heavenly Court."

Everyone was taken aback by Wei Guang's words, including Yu Yixian.

The Heavenly Emperor is Haotian, and Wei Guang, who is appointed to a position in Heaven, will inevitably be subordinate to him. He is the chief disciple of a sage and also the vice leader of the Jie Sect.

They couldn't understand why Wei Guang would obey Haotian's orders.

"I am willing to go with the Vice Leader." Although she didn't understand what Wei Guang was thinking, Yu Yixian responded immediately.

"I'll go too," Zhao Gongming followed closely behind.

The remaining people hesitated, and Duobao tentatively asked, "Is it absolutely necessary to go?"

Duobao was extremely unwilling. Why would he give up his position as a direct disciple of the sage and go to heaven to be at the beck and call of Haotian, thus putting himself in shackles?

Wei Guang shook his head: "I won't force it."

Upon hearing this, Duobao immediately stood up and bowed, saying, "Junior Brother is so engrossed in cultivation, I hope the Vice Master will forgive him."

Wu Dang and Gui Ling also took the opportunity to politely refuse, but Jin Ling was still hesitant. It was just a matter of whether to go or not, and even she herself didn't know what she was struggling with.

Wei Guang waved his hand: "It's alright, everyone has their own preferences."

Seeing that Wei Guang seemed genuinely unconcerned, Duobao and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that Wei Guang was saying he wouldn't force them, but in reality, he was making a veiled threat.

After all, Wei Guang is now the vice leader.

We may not be able to do anything to them openly, but it's still easy to deal with them secretly.

Wei Guang naturally didn't care. He wanted to take people to heaven, but in the end, it was still to save people. He was afraid of the worst-case scenario, what if there really was a conferment of gods?

We'll save as many as we can; as for those who don't want to go, that's up to their own fate.

"I am also willing to ascend to heaven with the Vice Leader." After a moment's hesitation, Jin Ling finally made her choice, leaving both Duo Bao and Wu Dang stunned.

They didn't expect Jin Ling to agree, but it didn't matter; it was a matter of personal choice.

"Alright." Wei Guang nodded and looked at Yu Yixian: "Please ask Junior Brother to inform the outer sect that those who wish to go will ascend to heaven with me after a hundred years. It cannot be forced."

"Yes, I'll go right away." With that, Yu Yixian immediately got up and left.

Seeing this, Duobao and the other two also stood up and bowed, saying, "In that case, we will not disturb the Vice Master any longer."

Seeing Wei Guang nod, Duobao and the other two left together. After they were gone, Wei Guang turned to Zhao Gongming and asked, "Did Master mention the Five Emperors' teacher to you?"

If there were no Golden Spirit, Wei Guang, the teacher of the Five Emperors, would definitely have given it to Yu Yixian, but with the Golden Spirit, it's a different story.

Jin Ling is a direct disciple, so he should be ranked ahead of Yu Yi Xian. It can only be said that Yu Yi Xian's fortune is not good enough. After all, Wei Guang can't just give them the Emperor's teacher.

Putting aside the question of whether they were willing to part with it, the fact that Nuwa personally appointed him meant that this position as the Emperor's teacher could not be given to anyone else.

Asking Zhao Gongming was simply to see if Tongtian had distributed the resources in the correct order; if not, then the Golden Spirit Blessing might not be enough.

Zhao Gongming nodded: "I have spoken, and I am appointed as the teacher of an emperor."

"Since Junior Brother Gongming already has one, then I will pass my spot to Junior Sister Jinling." With that, Wei Guang looked at Jinling and explained to her what it meant to be the teacher of the Five Emperors.

Zhao Gongming didn't care; such a thing couldn't possibly be enjoyed by one person alone.

Jin Ling, on the other hand, looked completely bewildered.

She was willing to go to heaven with Wei Guang not for any personal gain, but because she secretly felt that going to heaven with Wei Guang was his best destiny.

Unexpectedly, such an opportunity was waiting for him.

"Thank you, Vice Master." Jin Lingqi quickly stood up and bowed in gratitude.

Wei Guang waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. Also, you can still call me Senior Brother from now on. The title 'Sect Leader' sounds rather awkward."

He holds the position of deputy leader, so his seniority remains the same, and he can be addressed however he wants.

"Vice Leader" sounds better than "Senior Brother".

As for why it wasn't mentioned earlier, well, relationships always vary in closeness. For those who are close, anything goes, but for those who are distant, the rules must be followed.

"Yes."

Wei Guang said, "Then you should go first. You can come to heaven with me a hundred years from now."

The reason for setting a hundred-year deadline was twofold: first, to give some outer disciples time to return; and second, because he still had some matters to attend to before ascending to heaven.

After the two left, Wei Guang began his seclusion.

……

"What? You want to go to heaven with your senior brother to take up a post?"

After leaving Sanguang Island, Zhao Gongming arrived at Sanxian Island and informed Yunxiao and the other two that he and Wei Guang would soon be taking up their posts in Heaven. Upon hearing this, Bixiao couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

Zhao Gongming was somewhat puzzled: "Is there a problem?"

"Brother, what were you thinking? You are a disciple of a sage, why would you lower yourself to go to heaven and be ordered around by that child of the first generation of the Jade Emperor?" Bixiao's face was full of disbelief.

Zhao Gongming was speechless: "Third sister, you need to change your personality, or you'll suffer sooner or later."

"Putting aside Uncle Haotian's seniority, his quasi-saint level cultivation alone is not something you can talk to like that. So what if he's a disciple of a saint?"

"Does being a disciple of a sage mean you can disregard everything?"

"Don't forget, Uncle Haotian is no ordinary page, but a page by the Grandmaster's side. If you really want to count, he is a disciple of the Dao Ancestor."

"Furthermore, I ascended to heaven to follow my senior brother, not my uncle Haotian."

Upon hearing this, Bixiao curled her lips. Although she didn't say anything more, her disdain was very obvious.

Seeing this, Zhao Gongming was also quite helpless.

He had talked to Bixiao about her personality many times, but she just wouldn't change. If this continued, it would eventually lead to disaster, and might even implicate Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and even him.

But the other party wouldn't listen, and there wasn't much he could do. He couldn't just sever all ties because of this, could he?

I wanted to ask the three of them if they would like to go to heaven with our senior brother, but it seems like that's not going to happen now. Oh well, it's better if they don't go, to avoid trouble.

……

Fifty years later, Wei Guang emerged from the pass.

In a flash, he arrived on the Sun Star, under the Fusang Tree. Without much hesitation, he directly used his great power to extract a portion of the Fusang Tree's essence.

Having lost part of its origin, the Fusang Tree suddenly withered and was downgraded to a superior-grade innate spiritual root.

However, this is only temporary. Given enough time, it will be able to recover, but that time will probably be very, very long.

Wei Guang then went to the moon and used the same method to extract part of the laurel's essence.

Subsequently, Wei Guang returned to Sanguang Island.

"Greetings, sir."

Looking at the swaying sunflowers, Wei Guang pointed and transmitted the cultivation method he had comprehended during his fifty years of seclusion into his consciousness.

That's right. Wei Guang secluded himself for fifty years not for cultivation, but to comprehend the methods of cultivation.

This method evolved from his Three Lights Profound Origin Technique. It may not be as profound as the Three Lights Profound Origin Technique, but it has the advantage of a low threshold, and anyone can practice it.

Although the entry barrier is low, the upper limit is not low; one can still cultivate to the Great Luo Perfection.
